Forms? She was in so much pain and distress she wasn't able to consent and understand what she was signing.
The flimsy case of a damaged baby where *someone* has to pay...the judge and jury will rationalize that "they have insurance", not to mention the big time trial lawyers have um "friendly" judges. So then it just turns into a cash award show from that big evil insurance company to this poor woman with a damaged baby.

I agree with a lot of what you are saying. I'm just *extremely* leery of someone out trying to push for a prescription.
I think there’s a big distinction between drug seeking and doctor shopping behaviour by addicts and people pushing for a prescription that has the potential to legitimately ease their suffering.
I realise those lines can become somewhat blurred, but when you suffer from terrible pain continually, pretty much any risk is with taking.
A good friend of mine had cluster headaches, they couldn’t do anything for it, he had them for something like 150 days in a row. Ruined his life, and he almost ended it, because he couldn’t bear it. This was a grown man in his late 50’s, not someone prone to dramatics.

Cluster headaches are brutal they are not continual. Hence the term cluster.
I cannot imagine anyone enduring even 5 minutes per day of cluster headaches for five months in a row.

Right? They would come and go, which was also awful, because he’d think he was going to be ok that day and then boom, another. He was like a hostage to them.
It was terrible, he couldn’t leave the house just in case. He would have given his left nut for any medication to stop it, no matter what the side effects. Withholding meds when someone has something like that is cruel IMHO.

He didn't withhold meds.
He prescribed her an injection which she'd have to go to the hospital once a week to receive.
She says (and I take that with a grain of salt because this chick is a lunatic) that her insurance denied it.
